For this challenge I thought I could capture some images of Indian woman wearing red dots, or bindis as make-up. I was on my way to a temple when I saw this woman walking up- hill towards a spot on the street were a warm afternoon sun was shining. I quickly grabbed my camera, set it on shutter priority and shot a couple of frames. I checked the exposure on the lcd and then switched to manual mode but bracketed down one stop. She was now approaching the sun-lit spot and I fired away as fast as I could. I stood only about 5 metres away from her, but she didn't seem to mind to be photographed so I yelled hello in hope that she would turn towards me, wich she luckily did. I ajusted the shadows ever so slightly in Picasa2 (It's hard to find Photoshop in an internet cafe here), but didn't crop since I was happy with the bag she was carrying on here head, as another point of interest.
